So I preordered both of these nice pieces of equipment to replace my Razer Chroma and Naga. Now fit and finish I love them. CUE is deep and will take some time to learn so I have no problem with that.

My issues are dealing with CUE 2 it's the latest 2.9.53 build. I updated the firmware for both mouse and keyboard. So when I open CUE it always goes to default if I don't have the advanced selected and if I do have advanced then both mouse and keyboard have no lighting or my macros. CUE2 also says initially that no device detected then when it does detect the devices it says there is a profile conflict.

The saving grace here is that before I realized these issues I set up a light profile I like and my macros saved them to the onboard memory so that is definitely great having the onboard memory. Though I would like it to work as it should be working.

I tried searching, but there is so much to go through I can't tell if I'm having the same problems as other people or not. Some issues I read seem to be similar and some do not.

With the profile conflict, You will need to make sure any changes made in the hardware profiles is saved to the keyboard/mouse. You'll know as there will be a * at the top of the hardware profile icon.

When advanced mode is enabled, It is normal for the devices to have no lighting effects applied. You need to manually create and assign them keys. I'm not 100% sure on the macros as they should not be affected by the standard/advanced mode switch.

I looked at the unofficial manual and that did help me identify which hardware profiles I needed to save. So I did do that and I deleted profiles that I didn't want. Now it still loads up, but wants to load back in profiles I thought I deleted.

Another question is when saving Scimitar Pro or K95 profiles are the profiles for both suppose to be saved on one or both devices?

Example is that I can save the settings and lighting effects I setup in a profile to the internal memory of either the keyboard or the mouse. Is there any conflict in that or is that how it is suppose to be?

This is what my CUE 2 homescreen looks like, but I want to delete these profiles down to just 1 or 2 hardware profiles and 1 or 2 software profiles. I've figured out the software profiles, but hardware is confusing me. This might be new territory as the K95 and Scimitar Pro I think are one of the first to have this internal memory.

The first thing you're going to want to do is clear the devices' memory. Go to the Settings page (the little gear icon) and under each device, there's the option to clear its memory.

You can then go ahead and delete all those hardware profiles that got imported. Make a new hardware profile, and set it up however you want. Once you're done, head to the page for the mouse or keyboard. There's a new section on the left, under macroes and lighting effects. I can't remember the name off hand, but it's something like 'Save to device'.

Anyway, head to that section, and you will see the profiles that are saved on the device. Select a slot, hit Save, and wait for it to do its thing. Once it's saved to the device, you're done!

Now, there's an important thing to note. When you make a hardware profile, you can see its effects while you're editing it in CUE, and you can see its effects when CUE is closed, however you cannot switch to that profile while CUE is open. While CUE is open, you can only use software profiles.

I like this feature and figured this out yesterday. I like the onboard memory addition to these devices. So if I don't need to have CUE or have any issues I still have profiles ready to go. I'll do the clear device memory tip you gave me thanks.

You delete the onboard profiles from "Save Devices to Memory" tab when clicking on a HW Profile. If you manually delete the profile from the profiles list, it just deletes the locally stored copy of it.

I have to agree with those who think the CUE 2 user interface is very confusing. It breaks a number of the usual good practices found in most UIs. It takes me a long time to figure out how to do things. I still haven't been able to find the steps necessary to save a profile to my K95 keyboard to have it be the lighting that shows up when the computer goes to sleep (lock screen). I can't find in Cue a way to make a "hardware profile"... Any clues would be appreciated.
